Nothing Beats A Try But A Fail Lyrics & Chords By James Brown

Nothing and nothing's where you're at
When you ain't got something
You'll never get it back
It's coming on like a drug

The universal power of one
But it don't mean nothing
If it all comes undone
(Uh-uh)

Fly away if you fly away
You might die today, if you fly, fly

Gimme some love, gimme some skin
If we ain't got that then we ain't got much
And we ain't got nothing
Gimme some love, gimme some skin
If we ain't got that then we ain't got much
And we ain't got nothing, nothing

You're left with nothing and nothing's what you've got
When you ain't got no-one, no-one
You could have had the lot and if it's over today
You'll never get that thing you had together, no way
You only get it once

Fly away, if you fly, if you fly

Gimme some love, gimme some skin
If we ain't got that then we ain't got much
And we ain't got nothing
Gimme some love, gimme some skin
If we ain't got that then we ain't got much
And we ain't got nothing, nothing

We ain't got nothing, a day's a number
Don't remember how you found it
You will never feel the same and forever have to take
It for granted, don't remember our mistake

We ain't got nothing, a day's a number
Don't remember how you found it
You will never feel the same and forever have to take
It for granted, don't remember our mistake

Gimme some love, so gimme some skin
If we ain't got that then we ain't got much
And we ain't got nothing, nothing
Gimme some love, so gimme some skin
If we ain't got that then we ain't got much
And we ain't got nothing, nothing

Gimme some love, so gimme some skin
If we ain't got that then we ain't got much
And we ain't got nothing, nothing
Gimme some love, so gimme some skin
If we ain't got that then we ain't got much
And we ain't got nothing, nothing
